This is the part I want to know more about.  Apparently there's some
event X between early_quirks() and the PCI device enumeration, and we
must disable MSIs before X:

  setup_arch()
      early_quirks()                     # arch/x86/kernel/early-quirks.c
      early_pci_clear_msi()
  ...
  X
  ...
  pci_scan_root_bus_bridge()
    ...
    DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_EARLY              # drivers/pci/quirks.c

I want to know specifically what X is.  If we don't know what X is and
all we know is "we have to disable MSIs earlier than PCI init", then
we're likely to break things again in the future by changing the order
of disabling MSIs and whatever X is.
